It is soon deemed too harsh and its provisions for punishment are reduced to forced labor in December. Oregon's Provisional Government passes the first Exclusion Law in the Oregon Country following the Whitman Massacre in 1847. Federally-appointed Governor Joseph Lane arrives to proclaim that Oregon is now a Territory of the United States. The Oregon Donation Land Act becomes law, granting free land to "whites and half-breed Indians" in the Oregon Territory. Note that the language of the act prevents blacks from claiming land in Oregon. Jacob Vanderpool, a saloonkeeper living in Salem, becomes the only person known to have been kicked out of the Oregon Territory because of his skin color.

For the past 16 years, OCTA has been at the very forefront of researching, preserving, marking and publicizing the trails. Their efforts have led to the discovery of countless visible trail remnants. They have battled and sought compromises with those who planned projects that would have disturbed or destroyed trail ruts. OCTA has supported and lobbied for legislation which has furthered the cause of trail preservation and public awareness. They have encouraged trail scholarship to broaden our understanding and appreciation of the overland trails experience and its impact on American History. John Mark Lambertson Director, National Frontier Trails Center Trails Head makes it possible for Kansas City's rich history to live on ... their educational efforts teach us about our history and what makes us unique. How delightful it is to have a group who cares so much about history and does so much to preserve it for all of us!

110. End Of The Oregon Trail End of oregon trail Interpretive Center Long before pioneers crossed the In the early 1800s Americans made sporadic efforts to set up competing trading http://www.loc.gov/bicentennial/propage/OR/or-5_h_hooley3.htm

End of the Oregon Trail By the 1860s, Oregon City had lost its position of prominence, following the establishment of Oregon's new capital at Salem and the growth of the downriver town of Portland. It still remained a literal crossroads, as the Willamette Falls marked the division between steamboat traffic on the upper and lower river until construction of the locks in the 1870s. It was also a favored site for the railroads, and the Southern Pacific placed its water-level route along the coast. In a typical year, there are 70,000 to 80,000 visitors to the Center from as far away as Germany, Japan, Australia, and South Africa. The project is documented with six pages of text, 11 color slides with descriptions, and a promotional brochure. Local Legacies Home States Listing Project Titles
